High Martial Arts: I Travel Through Heaven and Earth Through Dreams

Chapter 683 The Three Possessors of the Longevity Holy Body

So what if you have unparalleled killing skills and are invincible among your peers?

I'll sit and watch your vital energy decline, your lifespan run out, and you turn into a handful of yellow earth. Once you're completely dead, I'll go to your grave and dance. Isn't that a different kind of invincibility?

After thinking it all through, Lin Hanzhou muttered to himself.

"The Immortal Body... it really is a good candidate to be a tool."

"System, activate the [Guidance of Destiny] to find me a possessor of the Immortal Body in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths!"

Without further hesitation, Lin Hanzhou silently communicated with the system panel deep within his mind.

A deep, ancient bell rang out again in Lin Hanzhou's ears.

thump—

The melodious tolling of the bells cleansed the soul.

At this moment, Lin Hanzhou felt as if his divine sense was infinitely magnified, extending along the threads of cause and effect of fate to the endless and distant depths of the cosmos.

When the dazzling golden light completely condensed in the void, even with Lin Hanzhou's imperial composure, a look of astonishment and surprise appeared on his face.

Because before his eyes, the golden thread of fate that should have been a single, solitary thread suddenly split apart, transforming into three golden threads of the same thickness!

These three golden threads, like three golden serpents roaming in the void, each exuded a profound aura of cause and effect, pointing straight to three completely different directions in the universe.

"There are... three of them?"

Lin Hanzhou raised his eyebrows slightly, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

It should be known that in the ancient records of those immortal holy lands and ancient families that have been passed down for millions of years, the Longevity Holy Body is an extremely rare physique that is extremely difficult to find even once in all the ages. It is often impossible to find even one case in this world every hundreds of thousands of years.

Unexpectedly, in this seemingly ordinary era, three individuals with the Longevity Saint Body have been born simultaneously in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

However, Lin Hanzhou only pondered for a moment before smiling with relief.

The Holy Body is indeed extremely rare, but the universe is simply too vast, with countless star systems and a human population that has multiplied on various life-bearing planets, reaching a terrifying astronomical scale that cannot be measured by numbers.

Given such an unimaginably large number of individuals, the simultaneous birth of three immortal bodies isn't so strange upon closer examination.

Moreover, the phrase "once in a million years" in ancient texts refers to those immortal holy sites.

No matter how powerful their divine sense and vision are, they ultimately cannot do what Lin Hanzhou did, using the system—an unreasonable cheat—to conduct a precise search of the entire universe without any blind spots.

Those sacred bodies, whose brilliance is obscured and hidden in the mortal world or remote star regions, are naturally impossible for those sacred places to find, and are thus attributed to being "once in a million years".

Putting aside these complicated thoughts, Lin Hanzhou leaned back on an ice rock and began to think about another problem that was giving him a headache.

"Which of these three immortal bodies should I choose to cultivate?"

The future self departs with great ease, but it doesn't clearly explain that he actually possesses three immortal bodies.

"Well, since fate has given three directions, it means that all three of them are possible."

"I will go and see them one by one in person before making a final decision."

"While the physical constitution of the Longevity Saint Body is important, the focus should be on the character, methods, and qualities of these three individuals."

A resolute glint flashed in Lin Hanzhou's eyes.

As soon as he finished speaking, the imperial laws surrounding him trembled slightly.

Beside him, two figures appeared, identical to Lin Hanzhou in appearance, temperament, and demeanor, and slowly stepped out from the void.

For him, the current emperor, sending two avatars to investigate various parts of the universe was an extremely simple tactic.

However, Lin Hanzhou also sensed the limitations of these two clones.

Perhaps due to the suppression of the laws of the universe, or perhaps because he had not specifically cultivated the path of incarnation, the strength of these two incarnations, though terrifying to outsiders, was only at the peak of the Quasi-Emperor level, not even qualifying as an alternative path to enlightenment.

"His cultivation level is still a little lacking, but... it should be more than enough for hiding in the shadows and observing."

Lin Hanzhou's true form shook his head and chuckled softly.

Immediately, the two avatars at the peak of the Quasi-Emperor realm bowed slightly to the main body, and with a flicker, they transformed into invisible breezes, following the two golden threads of destiny on the left and in the middle, instantly tearing through the void and disappearing from the snow mountain.

Lin Hanzhou's true form, however, focused his gaze on the golden thread on the far right.

"Let me see what kind of person this first lucky one is."

A faint smile played on Lin Hanzhou's lips as he took a light step forward.

In the blink of an eye, he traversed countless star systems and landed directly on the target planet indicated by the golden thread on the far right.

As soon as he stepped into the atmosphere of this planet, Lin Hanzhou couldn't help but frown slightly.

This is... yet another desolate planet almost devoid of any spiritual energy.

No, it's not that it's completely devoid of spiritual energy; there's still a little bit of it.

Lin Hanzhou hovered high in the sky, closed his eyes, and faintly sensed the incredibly thin energy particles in the air. He sighed helplessly.

Given the meager concentration of spiritual energy here, it would be extremely difficult for the native cultivators to break through to the Dao Palace level; it would be practically the same as having none at all.

Lin Hanzhou's vast, ocean-like divine soul power instantly transformed into an invisible net, silently sweeping across the entire planet.

In the blink of an eye, he had already thoroughly grasped the local customs, historical patterns, and civilizational progress of this planet.

The civilization here is still quite backward, in the era of feudal dynasties where vassals are divided, and not a single piece of technology has been developed.

However, although this planet does not have a complete cultivation system, it has developed a rudimentary martial art that relies on cultivating the essence and internal energy of the human body.

Lin Hanzhou scanned the battle scenes of those martial arts experts with his divine sense and estimated that the ultimate martial arts practitioners here could probably possess the destructive power to blow up buildings. On this mortal planet, they could barely be considered to have touched the threshold of the extraordinary.

The owner of the Eternal Body he was looking for was, at this very moment, deep within the palace of a vast empire on this planet.

"His status is quite good; he's considered one of the strongest on this planet."

Lin Hanzhou's figure was hidden in the invisible spatial interlayer, like a cold-eyed god looking down at the magnificent, heavily guarded, luxurious palace below.

In his divine sense feedback, the owner of the Longevity Body was a middle-aged man who looked to be around forty years old, dignified and composed.
